    Eastern Standard Time; accessible to North and South America with
    simultaneous Spanish and French translations) to discuss final regulations
    implementing two sections in Title III of the Public Health Security and
    Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002. This public meeting
    will address the Registration of Food Facilities (Docket No. 2002N-0276)
    and Prior Notice of Imported Food Shipments (Docket No. 2002N-0278). The

    implementing each of these provisions. The purpose of the satellite
